Actually, Gramm has a point and i think he is referring to media outlets and othe politician rather than the people.

That’s right, it’s a media-created recession. The housing market has never been better. Buy, buy, buy… The same media were the source of all the hype in the heyday of the irrational housing bubble. Now it’s their fault we’re in this rut? Get a clue. Even the National Association of Realtors, the most biased and delusional trade group in the country, admit the market’s worse than it’s ever been and Banks are taking billions in write-offs. I suppose that’s the media’s fault too.

So much of what you read and hear in the media is negative. Telling us how bad things are here.

If you can find some good news, ANY good economic news, I’d love to hear it. Please enlighten us. Oh, and “it’s still better than Cuba” doesn’t qualify and “good news”.

Granted things have been better, but that have been worse too.

Yeah, like in 1929.

Try living in a country like cuba, then come back the US and all of the sudden things won’t seem so bad.

Way to build a straw man, genius. Of course, Americans don’t live in Cuba. Or Haiti, or Moldova, or Zimbabwe, for that matter, so the point is moot.

People in this country whine about gas prices and the mortgage crisis, but still go out and spend money on their blockbuster videos to watch in their DVD players on their sony flat screens in their Air Conditioned house or apt. Give me a break.

Try living in a 3rd world country, then compare that way of life to the way it is in the US. This is still one of the best places to live in the world. People here should be appreciate for what they have and shut up!

“We’ve never been more dominant; we’ve never had more natural advantages than we have today,” he said. “We have benefited greatly” from the globalization of the economy in the last 30 years.

The problem is you moron, that the “we” doesn’t include working Americans, just the fat cats like yourself.

Oh, and by the way, good strategy calling voters a bunch of whiners. Keep it up.

Hear that investors: The market isn’t in Bear territory, you’re just whinning.

All we have to do is a gas tax holiday and everyone will feel better.

Why does this sound like a strange parody of the touchy-feelies that the republicans used to decry as being new age ?

Psychological defense mechanisms. Must be gigantic ones.

Yeah selling food at Cartel prices or suffer sanctions that make extortion look good.

Almost thirty years later, Reaganomics and our industrial might has been so globalized we don`t manufacture anything in this country anymore and we have no choice but to import every g– damn thing we comsume.

Mr Gramm is an IDIOT,

How do these REICH WINGERS live with themselves day in and day
out…………

Here’s a quarter. Call someone who gives a sh!t.

And now my friends, you have the reason that I fully support Hitlers motives, though he certainly had the wrong people. Jews are hard workers. You welfare recipients should go to Africa for a week and find out just how bad you really have it.

You are kind of a bunch of whiny whores with no real solution. Despite my best judgement, I am going to have to side with McCain on this one.

I’m sorry, what was Johnny McWhiner complaining about again. I was too busy picking out a good cheese to go with his 1936 Chateau ST. McWhine.

Who’s bringing the crackers…?
